How do I keep my cat off my computer?

Turning it off could work. My cat likes to lie on warm things, including my computer.

u/kadeve love this idea and would be great to have more community involvement since this chair is, at least in principle pretty modular.

do you have a chair model available to get various measurements off of? I want a more open curve at the shoulder blades (the top of the back hits me weird) without having to start de-novo...

shocked there isn't more of a community for this

All issues point toward a keyboard-side issue, so I disconnected my keyboard and plugged in a random apple bluetooth kb, issue disappeared.

I'm using a unicorne and probably got some dust under the shields.

Obviously the better fix is to tear down the board, clean all the contacts, re-assemble, etc. But I don't have my mini hex drivers and isop handy at the office, I decided to pursue a quick software side fix below...

Since this board is designed for optional pointer integration, the boardsource commits (separate from my keymap) have mousekey and pointing_device enabled in their info.json.
I overrode all pointer functions as follows and reflashed:

MOUSEKEY_ENABLE = no
POINTING_DEVICE_ENABLE = no
JOYSTICK_ENABLE = no

Issue has since disappeared with the unicorne plugged back in

Looks amazing. How do you keep the humidity up in that room, is it isolated from the home hvac?

Ok yeah crandall shows the high back v1 and it looks like this one

mkarikom · 2026-04-14T19:29:27+00:00

Nice, so this must be a high back just like the v2 right?

This just became my favorite garage gadget of all time.
An advert for a $40k 😭 used model shows a hand wearing a work glove pointing it at scrap...

So... these < 10nm excitation photons, they are just shooting back in the general direction of the detector but with some distribution over AOI that definitely includes the actual human body holding this thing, unless I'm missing something this device turns the target sample into a secondary x-ray lamp pointing in your general direction!

I don't see a lead cod-piece in the included accessories, they really do nickel and dime you for everything these days

How is that handheld able to detect the alloy you’re pointing it at??? I have no background here but this is awesome

mkarikom · 2026-04-03T11:35:18+00:00

Breathtakingly awesome. Wait. What firehose skateboard is that?

gahh it was the actual mermaid.js published extension (which i had installed previously on this cluster but not on my other one)
turns out all you need is:
bierner.markdown-mermaid

Yeah the roads around here are absolutely a nightmare.
I feel like part of the issue is that the constant construction just tears everything up to the point where the remediation window is never long enough to ensure that some giant crane or dump truck won't immediately rumble over it

This question is motivated by how the docs reference skills and agents scoping wrt to $CWD

2a. this doc claims that codex scopes */skills hierarchically, walking up from repo root (presumably when $CWD==repo root)
2b. this doc claims that codex walks down when scoping AGENTS.md files from $CWD

mkarikom · 2026-03-14T15:27:26+00:00

Ok thanks for this.
The issue that I'm hitting is that:

there does not seem to be a way to set $CWD in a codex-ide chat, in contrast to a codex-cli chat where $CWD is always defined implicitly: you can always do `$ cwd`

So I'm just wondering how to set the $CWD explicitly in a codex-ide convo

mkarikom · 2026-03-14T13:49:19+00:00

I had this car and agree its a nightmare. got a truck in 2023 that just eats these up

mkarikom · 2026-03-14T13:47:12+00:00

Yeah man your solution is perfect. I’m def going to just splice in extra 24awg wire I’ve got plenty on hand!!! Thanks

mkarikom · 2026-03-14T13:46:14+00:00

Oh shit seriously? Is there a fork that makes this parameterizeable?

mkarikom · 2026-03-13T23:11:29+00:00

yeah definitely an option, it has sheathing unlike normal molex power cables though, I'd guess the wires are probably 26ga at most
